Which Sci-Fi Author Titled My New Album?

You decide!

My new album is coming out on September 18th and I don't have a title for it yet!

I decided to enlist the help of some of my author friends.  Each one of them looked at the artwork and track list and offered a title. 

Now I need your help.  Take a look at the titles below and choose your favorite:


Vote by writing your favorite title in the comments below, e-mailing me at 27summers@gmail.com or by sending me a message on Twitter or Facebook.  The title with the most votes will win!

By voting, you're also entering for a chance to win a digital copy of the album!  I'll randomly pick one of the entries from the comments, e-mails, tweets or facebook messages.  Good luck!

  4. There really is no contest. Feverishly Moisturizing (by Mur Lafferty) it must be!

  5. I like "Never Mind the Mynocks", personally, but it should have a tagline to be more true to the original Sex Pistols title. Something like "Never Mind the Mynocks, Here's the Sci-Fi Songster!"

    1. Chris actually added that in his suggestion. It was supposed to read "Never Mind The Mynocks, Here's John Anealio!"

  14. While Laser Zombie Robot Love is very tempting, as someone who listened to Classic Rock before the "Classic" tag came along BECAUSE I WAS ALIVE THEN, I think I have to go with Paul Kemp's suggestion, Genrephenia.

  15. Oh I'm torn between Music is Coming, Laser Zombie Robot Love, and The Official Songbook of An Internet Bard....

    I think I'll go for Laser Zombie Robot Love

    1. It is indeed a difficult choice. :-) Thanks for voting!

  16. 'Laser Zombie Robot Love' is a very appealing title. But 'The Official Songbook of an Internet Bard' is the one that best describes you.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I say "Never Mind the Mynocks" because it's fun to say. It's short and has a bit of assonance. And the art looks like you might be shooting at mynocks. Second choice is "The Official Songbook of an Internet Bard" because even if it takes a bit longer to say, it's cool, and what else matters?.

    1. I think "Never Mind the Mynocks" is a great title. I don't know why you have to call it a bit of an ass though. :-)

  18. Laser Zombie Robot Love (by Chuck Wendig). Catchy, not too wordy and can be referred to in tweets as the LZRL album.

  19. Got to be Geek Tunes. Bonus points if you can get a Carpathia song in there.

  20. Never Mind the Mynocks!

  21. The Official Songbook of An Internet Bard sounds lovely. Almost voted for Geek Tunes, because yay for simplicity! but the words "internet bard" just sound too awesome.

  22. Laser Zombie Robot Love, followed closely by GeekStar/Geek Tunes (tied)

  23. I'm voting for Laser Zombie Robot Love. The longer titles are too long, and the shorter ones don't grab me.
